a oGs without MC is not "oGs", sad to see him go, just hope he doesnt lose skill level due to lack of partners to practice with

I think it might not affect his training per se, but I am quite sure it will affect his winratio in the GSL in the long run. As time goes on players preparing for important matches will utilize their teams more and more to come up with builds, strategies and tactics to come ahead and players without a high-level teammates will be essentially crippled. They will have harder time winning even if skill-wise they will be on the same level.

Also as with LiquidHuk, oGsMC is the correct nickname, the new ones matter not

WTF?!? shocking 0.o

I seriously doubt that this is a good move for MC, just because he misses training opportunities that oGs offers!

According to this MC will be earning 10% of what EG pays Huk.



Probably should take it with a grain of salt, HuK's salary was never revealed.


I would think that someone that nails all the big SC news before they happen probably have a pretty good idea of the ballpark at least.


well we have never gotten any info on it though
that's the funny thing, and it frankly raises eyebrows on the whole professionalism bit

foreign players have their mouths tightly zipped on salary, the parent team shies away from releasing financial information...let alone the "amazing" tournaments like ESL.

today we do have a good ballpark on the salary in BW - and that's coming from the foreigner side
There is no such thing is "e-sports". There is Brood War, and then there is crap for nerds.

It would surprise me a lot

If it's true that huk gets a 6 number salary as it was said, it's more likely he gets something like 100000 then 150000-200000, so mc would only get 10000.

MC could have a better salary from almost any team, I'm pretty sure a team like eg would be pretty happy to get a player of MC caliber paying him 20000 per year.

Neither was MC moving to SK or Zenio joining TL.

Obviously this guy knows shit othes don't ...

Zenio was known WAY before it was announced.

I got hints of something like this from Reis, but that's about it. I was still blown away by this.


In what way was it known? Pretty sure it was all speculation in the thread about that picture thingy...

Was it known before the guy posted it on reddit?

Holy... just WOW.

Big move from sk and really shocking.
I am a little surprised he will be moving out of the oGs house but I guess since there is an existing deal with oGs-TL he had to, which is a little sad.

GL to MC and SK in 2012 and GL to oGs finding another beast to replace MC.

you got to understand though that most starcraft people would logically assume oGs -> SK in the title to mean SKT1.

Transferring to a team, that doesn't have a SC2 team is more logical?

I hope this means MC will continue to take part in many foreign tournaments.

MC earned the most from foreign events last year out of everyone iirc. So, having a big salary obviously wouldn't be that important to him if he could no longer attend the foreign events that made him so rich in the first place.

I really hope SK get a team together and not just MC. I'm a big fan of teams personally over individual sponsorship's but that is just my preference. I don't want to see another Na'Vi. A team that has great potential in SC2 but not capitalising on it.

Great move for them though.

Money speaking louder it seems... This pretty much shows that MC is gonna be dedicating himself on international tournaments rather than GSL. There's no way he'll be able to keep up with the best in Korea without a group of players in a professional environment.

We're sure to be seeing a lot of MC on Dreamhacks, MLGs, RoGs and whatever when he drops out of GSL.

GL SK and MC.

good move by SK gaming to hire someone as good and established as MC, pretty much an "EG"-esque move . hope he won´t stay the only one there though.
